michele bachmann is going through her quarterly purge of staff. rick santorum and jon huntsman with not exactly catching fire as candidates. there's frankly only one unanswered question left about the republican party picking its nominee for president this year. and that is the question of whether or not they are over whatever it was that made them hate him so much in 2008. now, mike huckabee seems to have been the candidate who hated him the most. it was his campaign manager who said he wanted to knock romney's teeth out, for example. mr. huckabee bragged this weekend on his fox news tv show on the accomplishment of having forced him to be civil around mitt romney in 2011. >> you know, a lot of people that are watching this interview because they really were wondering, would you and i be able to sit in the same room and be civil to each other? it was exactly four years ago when we were kind of going through it. so i think we've proven that people can be civil. >> mike huckabee not laughing while he said that. mitt romney sort of trying to, ha, ye

when bachmann won her primary, her straw vote, everybody said michele bachmann has a chance. i said no she doesn't. she will not win. when rick perry came into the race and everybody said this is a giant killer. no, no. we are the party for better or worse that does pick the ronald reagans. there's been governor for eight years. pick the bob doles, gerald fords, that pick the john mccains, that pick the george w. bushes. we don't take chances. we don't elect state senators that have only been in washington for a couple weeks. and it's not going to happen again this year. that's why somebody like rick perry can talk about shooting coyotes in the face all he wants and maybe that works in west texas. it's not going to work in the suburbs of philadelphia. >> it also makes for a very good political piece though shooting coyotes in the face. >> we'll talk about that later. let's do news. >> we're going to get to the polls because i think what joe is talking about is so interesting because it's almost like an interesting exercise in understanding the american electorate and almost a

michele bachmann, 8%. nbc campaign embed alex inmow in des moines on the very latest for the race for the hawkeye state. alex, good morning to you. >> reporter: hi, craig, how are you? >> how is cain pulling ahead in iowa with reportedly spending so little time and money in that state? >> actually, both herman cain and mitt romney have spent the least amount of time in the hawkeye state compared to any other candidates. there's two big events coming up this week in iowa where neither romney nor cain will be attending. so this poll is showing this trend that maybe iowans are looking for that business man, a ceo to run the country rather than a politician. whereas some of the other candidates, bachmann, rick santorum, they're spending lots and lots of time in iowa, but not seeing that traction that cain and romney are seeing. >> michele bachmann and rick perry slipped in a big way in that state. has cain's surge been at their expense? >> reporter: well, the last time this poll came out, actually, rick perry,
